Identifying the biggest challenges in running security teams

It’s hard to believe, but it’s been 10 years since I published the Pragmatic CSO. Quite a bit has changed in terms of being a senior security professional. Adversaries continuously improve and technology infrastructure is undergoing the most significant disruption I’ve seen in 25 years in technology. It’s never been more exciting – or harder – to be a security professional.

The one constant I hear in pretty much every conversation I have with practitioners is the ‘people’ issue. Machines aren’t ready to take over quite yet, so you need people to execute your security program. I’m wondering specifically what the most significant challenges in running your security team are, and I’ll focus my research on how to address those challenges.
